| May 4, 2009
I sat down with two Dartmouth rugby players, Jeff Kolovson '09 and team captain Conlan O'Leary '09, to talk about rugby, roommates and rivalries with other varsity sports. What were some of the defining moments this year in terms of setting the tone for total domination in the Ivy League? CO: That first Saturday when we beat Cornell 112-0 and then Princeton 101-0 for a total of 213-0 on the day, that was just really unprecedented.

Sure, we got a little rain the other day, but that is behind us, and spring is in full bloom -- even feeling like summer at times. My colleagues, Jordan Rose '09 and Michael Knapp '09, stumbled through a vain attempt at giving a few trite suggestions as to what to do when when the weather is warm in the "Toe to Toe" column on Sunday, but I think I can do better.
